hmm. Lock is catching
perhaps someone has hit your car from behind , a small shunt but enough to misalign the bumper or boot. Look into it -

yeah i think benj is right but mine was opposite of yours with my hatch i got hit and it didn't close so we just got a screw driver removed the cover and realigned it properly if you can do that it may be fixed, but its closed and i wouldn't know how you could get into your boot.
Hopefully your car will be back to normal soon.

hmm thx for the comments but i dont think its been hit or no signs that there is a hit. I can hear the lock clicking to open the open door light even goes on.

Spray some WD40 in the latch, jiggle it around while its locked, then go unlock it and see if that works.
